[INQ. NO. 2408E11] As viruses are not able to live independently, they have to enter the cells of animals, plants or bacteria so as to use the metabolic system of such host organisms to reproduce.
A virus has a glycoprotein integument surrounding internal acids and proteins. And S-protein spikes in the integument allow the virus to penetrate the host organism.
If the integument of the virus is dissolved, it would be absorbed by the host cell and lose its function instead of being able to invade the host cell. This is the virus inactivation system.
JungSang E&T’s air disinfectant device ‘KPLAZER’, uses the virus inactivation system and UVC radiation to destroy and dissolve the virus’s outer cover to eliminate the virus. KPLAZER doesn’t generate ozone and there is no secondary contamination caused by the virus.

KPLAZER’s performance was tested by ofi (Austria), showing the performance of removing viruses by 99.96% and bacteria by 99.71%. ISEGA (Germany) also conducted another performance test, finding that escherichia coli were removed by 99.99% and staphylococcus aureus by 99.98%.
The performance test carried out by the designated inspection organization in accordance with the Food Sanitation Act set by the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare (Japan) showed that both staphylococcus aureus and micrococcus luteus were reduced by 99.99%. According to the test result done by KTL (Korea), floating viruses and germs decreased by 97% and 99%, respectively.

Air disinfectant device’s electrical safety won global certifications
In addition, KPLAZER’s electrical safety has been certified by CE (Europe), IEC (International), PSE (Japan) and KC (Korea).
KPLAZER’s casing is equipped with a safety device to stop the operation if the panel is forcibly opened while the product is working. For maintenance, the panels in front and on the right side are to be manually opened and closed.
KPLAZER’s blower is equipped with an eco-friendly EC blower (backward curved blade centrifugal type). Core components of KPLAZER can be used for more than three years without any replacements.

Micro Medical Robot System

August 21, 2024 by Leave a Comment
https://korean-electronics.com//inquiry

[INQ. NO. 2408E06] Established in 2019, IMsystem Co., Ltd. has developed Korea’s first micro medical robot system for precision vascular interventional procedures, and is currently commercializing it.
Currently, IMsystem has completed the prototype production of a remote magnetic micro medical robot system for vascular intervention procedures, and the licensing process is in progress.

Micro medical robot system for precision vascular intervention procedures
Unlike existing vascular intervention procedures in which the operator manually manipulates surgical tools, the micro medical robot system for precision vascular intervention (IM_SuperMag_Clinic) uses a magnetic field control system installed at the bottom of the patient’s bed. It is a remote surgery system using a magnetic guide wire/catheter microrobot attached to a microrobot fitted at the end of the existing guide wire/catheter.
Existing procedures have limitations in that it is difficult to insert surgical tools into narrow blood vessels of complex shapes due to manual manipulation by the operator, so the results of the treatment depend on the operator’s skill level. In addition, in the case of complex procedures, not only does exposure to radiation from X-rays, etc., increase due to increased procedure time, but the number of patients who can receive the procedure is also limited due to operator fatigue.

IM_SuperMag_Clinic controls remote surgical tools through magnetic field control, and the operator performs the procedure using a joystick/3D mouse while viewing X-ray images in a separate space rather than inside the operating room.
By reducing fatigue and radiation exposure and improving the convenience of the procedure, the success rate of the procedure, the speed of patient recovery, and the number of daily patients can be increased. It can thus meet the needs of patients, operators, and hospitals, respectively.
Following the completion of prototype development has been completed, and domestic GMP and licensing are currently in preparation. The acquisition of a domestic license is expected by the end of 2025. For overseas, IMsystem is aiming for CE and FDA approval in 2028. And it is expected that it will be able to quickly advance into overseas markets after being exempted from clinical trials by receiving 510k equivalent recognition from the FDA.
